Open Source Python Live Streaming Software

Audio toolkit for streaming, aiming at complex Internet radio systems. Our stream generator is highly extensible and flexible. Script based, it can be a fully automatic daemon streamer, but is also used for live shows with an user-friendly GUI.

TwitchDropsMiner is a desktop application that automates earning timed Twitch Drops by simulating “watch” activity without actually streaming video, letting users collect rewards while saving bandwidth and attention. It works by periodically fetching stream metadata to advance Drops progress, while maintaining a websocket connection to monitor which channels are online, offline, or changing status. The app is designed to reduce manual babysitting by switching channels automatically when a stream goes offline or when a higher-priority opportunity becomes available. It supports prioritisation logic, including game priority and exclusion lists, so users can focus on specific campaigns and avoid unwanted categories. The tool also discovers new drop campaigns based on linked accounts and validates streams using tags and campaign checks to avoid wasting time watching streams that cannot earn rewards.

Streamlink is a command-line utility that pipes video streams from various services into a video player, such as VLC. The main purpose of Streamlink is to avoid resource-heavy and unoptimized websites, while still allowing the user to enjoy various streamed content. There is also an API available for developers who want access to the stream data. Streamlink is built upon a plugin system that allows support for new services to be easily added. Most of the big streaming services are supported. Streamlink is made up of two parts, a cli and a library API. See their respective sections for more information on how to use them. The default behavior of Streamlink is to playback streams in the VLC player. Please note that by using this application you're bypassing ads run by sites such as Twitch.tv. Please consider donating or paying for subscription services when they are available for the content you consume and enjoy.

Slim Camera is a lightweight RTSP viewer for IP cameras. On first launch, it prompts for the stream URL (saved for future sessions) and runs in the system tray to avoid taskbar clutter. It remembers window position, size, and camera URL via an INI file for seamless reuse. The interface keeps distractions minimal - just the video stream in an auto-sizing window. Right-click the tray icon to change the camera URL, restart the stream, reset window position, or exit. Press F1 to quickly modify the RTSP address. Optimized for low resource usage, it works reliably even on older hardware, making it perfect for background monitoring. With portable settings (single INI file) and focus on core functionality, Slim Camera delivers no-fuss video streaming for users who value simplicity. Support its free, open-source development with a donation at https://boosty.to/slim-camera/donate to help keep it ad-free and growing!

A stream implementation for Python that provides transparent base64 encoding and decoding of an underlying stream. This project is designed to develop a class, :class:`base64io.Base64IO`, that implements a streaming interface for Base64 encoding. Python has supported native Base64 encoding since version 2.4. However, there is no streaming interface for Base64 encoding, and none is available from the community. The legacy base64.encode and base64.decode interface lets you shuffle data between two streams, but it assumes that you have two complete streams. We wanted a standard stream that applies Base64 encoding and decoding. :class:`base64io.Base64IO` provides an io streaming interface with context manager support that transparently Base64-encodes data read from it. You can use it to transform large files without caching the entire context in memory or to transform an existing stream.

Tuner for streaming internet radio and TV (nsv stream), written in Python, providing searchable listings of audio and video media broadcasts from the shoutcast (Winamp) and icecast servers. Helper programs can be specified to play video or audio streams.

WebCam Streamer is a professional, lightweight application that lets you stream your laptop or external webcams in real-time.
